Clones from indoor to out

The clones I bought of True OG were grown indoors under lights, not sure how many hours of light they were getting.. Here is my question. They look like they might be trying to go in to flower stage since they were getting exposed to light, maybe 24 hours a day and then I purchased them and placed them in pots out side in full sun. the leaves at first were coming out with five leaves, then to four and not three.. Anyone one have experience with this, will they eventually re-veg since the days are longer now?? Thanks for any help in advance.
PS I placed them outside April 14th, 2014

no need to worry plant them out doors . they will not be stressed . you don't need to wait . or worry. when they are in veg . its almost impossible to stress them . I run 24/7 and throw them into flower who knows what time it is. when ever I get energy . not lazy.

okay, I know about the 12-12 hour flower thing but I have been reading that if they are getting 24 hours of light and you subject them to say 13 or 14 hours of darkness you can push them in to flower.. Keep in mind I DO NOT want them to flower I want them to grow the entire summer outside and start the flower cycle based on the natural hours of light clock, if that makes sense

Here is my daylight info now from weatherunderground.com

Length of Visible Light14h 46m
Length of Day

13h 51m
Tomorrow will be 1m 32s longer.

kinda goes like this. April 14 was to early for clones coming off 24 hour light maybe even 14 hrs light. They should revegg hopefully and not get stuck in an in between state where they go back and forth because it took so long to re vegg. re vegging takes a while and sometimes if you don't want to take a chance it's best to start over. They will most likely re vegg fine though.

Yeah any pre flowered clones should be replaced, I like to use 16/8 light cycle if planting November(May for you) so they don't go into flower as I've learnt that painful lesson the hard way. Lol they grew a foot in 2 months a couple years ago because of early preflower.

You are right in what you said. They where used to more light and did not have time to acclimatise themselves, progressively.

When they are in pots, you can either bring them in and give more light, decreasing progressively to match the hours of natural sunlight.

Or just leave them out since the days are getting longer and they will re-veg by themselves.

Search, cannbis regenertaion/rejuvenation.

your clones went into bud because there wasn't enough light out, and the dramatic change from 24 to 13 hours if your clones went into bud already i would just start with new clones. your yield could be affected considering it takes so long to come out of bud and back in veg your season could be over by then.

I called the place I got them from and confirmed they are under lights 24 hours a day. I have been keeping them under the three flood lights on my patio and keep the lights on till about 10pm so I am hoping that they will not go into too much shock and go into full blown flower. I have also noticed that the side shoots are still growing so I am not giving up on them yet. I may look in to Fem. seeds.. Between autoflower and clones under 24 hour light I am going a little crazy. I have been in the Horticulture industry for 20+ years plus years but have not grown cannabis since the mid 80's and a lot has changed since then. :evil:

i wouldn't use fem seeds. i would just stick with reg seeds and sex them yourself, or just put your clones out at the right time man. most people around my area use T5's like (The Sun Blaze T5 fluorescent light fixture) to get there clones big and in may they start to cut there light back and throw them out june 1st. you can still get big plants even if you trash the ones you got now and start over. you can even starts seeds now and get a good harvest. DONT be discouraged man trial and error makes the best growers.
